Skin care trends from
around the world
From facial massages to essences and powders,
these are the most buzzed about skin care
trends you need to try for flawless skin.

Trend: Facial massage
Country of origin: Korea
The buzz: Korean women never skimp on their
skincare routines. Not only do they use a
dozen or more products daily, but they also
have a precise protocol of how they massage
the products on. They work serums,
treatments and moisturizers in to the skin
with a series of pinches, pulls and upward
strokes to get a coveted, contoured v-shape,
slim silhouette. Why it’s so popular: Not only
do the upward strokes defy gravity, but they
increase skin’s glow and help to detoxify the
skin since it stimulates lymphatic drainage for
gives a subtle lifting effect.
Coming to a vanity near you: This facial
massage trend means that there’s a surge of
sculpting products hitting the market.

Trend: Facial cleansing powders
Country of origin: Japan
The buzz: Facial cleansing powders are the
perfect mix of effective cleansing and
exfoliating. The super-fine grain, silky powders
are usually made from a combination of
granular rice bran, plant-based exfoliators and
botanical enzymes and since they’re so gentle
they can be use daily. How to use: Rub a
nickel-sized of the powder amount in to wet
palms until it forms into an paste and massage
on to face to buff away dirt and oil – not to
worry about scratching the skin since granules
will melt away.
Coming to a vanity near you: While
Dermalogica’s Microfoliant continues to be a
cult favourite, expect this trend to gain
momentum especially in North America where
microbead cleansers are being phased out due
to environmental concerns. These exfoliating
powders are ideal for travel since they’re
liquid-free.
